Useless ignorant dicks. And at the other end of the scale, their current "where do the teams play" quiz is nigh on impossible. You've got to find the location to within a cm on the map. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/46811667 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the reason "ex-Celtic/Rangers" gets used for headlines even when the player is better known for playing with other clubs is so that it shows up on search engines because - unfortunately - folk are searching for those two more often than any other teams. Same reason retired players get referred to as "Rangers/Celtic legend"; just trying to get more clicks. The ex-Bigot stuff was going on long before the internet appeared. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

accies1874 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Firstly, there are two lies in these screenshots:1) Claiming kids were getting abused.2) Accies fans were fighting with each other.Also, the quotes they've used in the second picture hardly back up their "vicious taunts" claim. There is no mention of the fact that Canning's dad was the one who went mental and started shouting at Accies fans before the fans turned on him. As well as this, allegedly - and I have as much proof as these outlets do - the stewards went over to the subjects of Canning's outburst to apologise to them. There's a screenshot I posted in the Accies thread which was a load of shite too, but I'll just pull out my favourite quote:Stewards were forced to step in to break up scuffles as older fans took umbrage with the group of teenagers who were calling for the manager to quit... Utter nonsense. Stewards stepped in due to Canning Sr offering adults outside for a fight. No other "older" Accies fans took umbrage, and no "teenagers" were involved in "scuffles". The Scottish Sun posted an article with a picture of our fans, captioned "some Hamilton fans were escorted out by stewards". NOPE. Canning Sr and the disabled fan he was with were the only one who left. It is crazy how much can be written that is simply lies, all hidden behind words such as "claimed" or "allegedly". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Minertaur Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 As somebody who likes American Football I absolutely despise this 'article' - https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/sfa-must-make-var-happen-13897806 It's meant to be about VAR in Scottish Football but I'd say 80% of it is him basically saying he hasn't a clue what happened last week in the Rams match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
